| Summary: | In conducting this study, the researchers would like to know the process which female colleges adults go through in a drinking session that will eventually lead to disclosure. The product disclosures derived from the respondents was then classified into content themes. The researchers took part in the drinking session composed of four (4) to eight (8) female college adults per group. The involvement of the researchers in the session was significant for the purpose of getting first-hand information. The researchers' participation enabled them to observe behaviors from the drinking sessions. A Preliminary interview was conducted with each individual of the three groups before the drinking session was held. This will served as a back up when results were analyzed. Thirty (30) survey questionnaires were also randomly given out at the very beginning of the study. The method of Successive Approximation was also used wherein the researchers were able to make the data fit in the framework of the study and was able to modify concepts. The subjects who participated in the study were chosen purposively. The researcher's own group of friends were asked to take part in the drinking sessions. Their ages ranged from 16-23 years old. The focus of the study will be the behavior of women in a drinking session which includes their interactions with each other, feeling of belongingness, serious and honest conversations and disclosure. Results of the study showed that female college adults hold drinking sessions for company, to have something to do while talking, celebration, hanging out and unwinding. The respondents of the study touched on the following disclosures: marriage, love, boy-girl relationships, heartaches, sex, family issues, and tsismis. The process of disclosure varied among the three groups with regards to spontaneity and repetition. |
